Food Grade

Since the human body is not capable of producing its own salt, we depend upon the various sources of salt in food to ensure our necessary daily intake. In Europe, around 7% of all salt produced is food grade salt. Salt has an important technological role in the manufacture of many foods, so that in addition to its well-known function as a preserver and a flavour enhancer, it is also fundamental to the consistency and texture of lots of our daily foods such as bread and cheese

Chemical industries

The chemical industry is by far the largest consumer of salt.

It is the raw material to produce chlorine (Cl) and caustic soda (sodium hydroxide, NaOH). they are produced by the electrolysis of salt in the form of brine by the mercury cell process, the diaphragm cell process, and the membrane cell process.

Chlorine, which is one of the most abundant and common chemical elements on Earth, is an extremely effective disinfectant and essential component in the chemical manufacture of thousands of Vitale products used every day, such as PVC (construction and houses), for instance.

Caustic soda solution is an essential ingredient in many industrial operations, including pulp and paper, detergent, and the chemical processing industry.

Soda ash is one of the three main ingredients for glassmaking, in which it lowers the temperature of the melt.

It is also used in alumina, petrochemical, and textile industries. Soda ash is one of the three main ingredients for glassmaking, in which it lowers the temperature of the melt. Soda ash is also the raw material to produc

e many sodium compounds, such as sodium silicate, sodium bicarbonate and sodium tripolyphosphate. Furthermore, the pulp and paper industry use soda ash in the chemical pulp manufacturing process.

 

 

Other applications within the chemical industry include:

  • Pulp and paper industry.
  • For pulping and neutralization.
  • For washing and bleaching.
  • For the processing of wastepaper.
  • Textiles: For example, leather tanning; For the finishing of wool and cotton and for dyeing and bleaching; For deacidification in the production of spun rayon, Waste and water treatment, Petroleum additives.

The right salt intake ensures their growth, strong immune and reproductive systems. Often agricultural animals and commercial livestock do not receive enough salt from foraging and other feeds and for that reason it is necessary to supplement their diet with salt.

Usage of Salt

Salt can easily be called the elixir of life and the basic raw material for the Chemical Industry. It has more than 14000 uses and 120 nations produce salt. Salt is the basic raw material for Chemicals and other Industries like Soda Ash, Caustic Soda, Chlorine, Paper, Plastic, Glass, Polyester, Fertilizers, Detergents, Textile Dyeing, Food preservation etc. Salt is used for edible purpose since the civilization. best carrier for iodine to the human body.
